Foxes Lodge accommodates up to two children and young people from aged 8 to 17 years old, male, or female, who experience emotional and behavioural difficulties.
Foxes Lodge is a semi-detached property. It benefits from easy accessibility to local amenities and is a well maintained 3-bedroom property in the heart of Bourne End, Buckinghamshire.
There are two bedrooms available for the children, and one bedroom for staff. The bedrooms are all situated together in the house upstairs ensuring safety and easy monitoring for staff. The bedrooms are light and airy where attention to detail offers a family environment and atmosphere, allowing children to relax in the privacy of their own rooms. Young people will be encouraged to personalise their bedrooms upon arrival into the home.
The property also has a main bathroom, with a bath and a separate shower. There is a lounge/dining area and a kitchen downstairs, both of which have doors leading to the outside garden area. There is an appropriate space for children and young people to engage in activities and relax, work towards their own individual life skills, and live within a family environment.
The lounge area will offer a place for young people to retreat, watch TV and play and interact with one another. The dining area will be used as a space for all children and staff to enjoy evening meals together and to hold weekly meetings offering young people an opportunity to air their views and respect others’ opinions. The home benefits from an enclosed private garden offering outdoor space for children and young people to dine and relax in. The outdoor space also offers opportunities for outdoor games. The home benefits from its own vehicle used to transport children and young people and ensure easy access to a wide range of community resources.
At Foxes Lodge we recognise that children and young people will be presented with an array of different needs and the home aims to ensure that each child is individually supported. Tailor-made support and therapeutic plans can offer the opportunity for children and young people to ensure they can receive positive parenting, guidance, and support. All new children coming into the home will need to be assessed to match the other young people in placement.
